Manchester United v Manchester City

Hopefully we'll play as strong a team as possible. No point changing people and upsetting our current form. Take important players off when the game is over if need be. We can rest a few on Wednesday as Wigan are on their holidays already.
 
Massive match. Win this then we are 1 win and 1 draw away from the title, lose and it makes it abit harder.

2-0 Berbatov and Anderson to score, Yes i said it.
 
this is always a difficult game to predict, but i'll go for a 1-0, with the team hopefully being
--------------------VDS-----------------------
o'shea----------rio-------vidic--------evra---
---------Fletcher---carrick----anderson-------
----ronaldo-------------------------rooney---
------------------Tevez----------------------

Why do so many of you insist on playing with 10 men?
 
--------------------VDS-------------------
O'shea---------Rio-------Vidic--------Evra
--------------Fletcher---Carrick-----------
---Ronaldo----------Giggs------------Rooney
-------------------Berbatov----------------

Will be the team. Although how the front four are arranged I dont know.
 
Surely Tevez will start and play majority of the match? Not just because he will hassle the defence but because he hasn't featured since boro, and hasn't started since Arsenal 1st Leg.
 
i think this game will be over early. we have the trophy in our sites and we are playing so professionally i cant see us losing this game

3-0

tevez x2 Fletcher
 
any idea how they will line up

zabaleta - ricahrds - dunne - garrido
-------kompany----dejong--------
ireland-------elano??-------robinho
-----------caceido----------------

something like that ??

wont be easy . esp if they decide to play with 2 defensive midfielders
 
I still see United getting an early goal regardless of how they lineup, that should make it a lot easier, reckon Hughes will go all out for it too, to save his job
 
Beat Citeh, win the league?

Not tempting fate here, actually i feel this will be our toughest match without a doubt. City always turn up against us, it's their cup final, something to give the fans to feel good about. I think if we can win this, then not even Arsenal with Arshavin can stop us, we might get a draw but we won't/shouldn't slip up against Wigan and Hull. Huge match this.
 
Team should be....

GK: VDS

RB: O'Shea
CB: Ferdinand
CB: Vidic
LB: Evra

RM: Ronaldo
CM: Carrick
CM: Fletcher
LM: Park

CF: Rooney
CF: Berbatov

Subs: Foster, Rafael, Evans, Carrick, Scholes, Anderson, Tevez

4-2 Thriller, Ronaldo x2 Rooney and Berbatov for us.
 
Jacob's prediction

Line-up:

----------------------------VDS-----------------------
O'Shea--------Ferdinand--------Vidic-----------Evra
Ronaldo--------Fletcher--------Carrick---------Park
-----------------Rooney--------Berbatov-------------

Score: Manchester United 3 - 1 Manchester City

Goals: Rooney, Ronaldo, Carrick

Player to watch: Ferdinand
 
Hoping for an absolute bollocking of City; not only to make up for losing to them last season but also to knock those damn Scousers off their goal-difference perch.
 
I'm feeling pretty confident today. 4 (Berbatov, Scholes, Rooney x2) - 1 (Ireland)
 
Sopcast, TVANTS and TVU all hate me and cric7.com is not working. Can anyone pm me a working sopcast channel (UK) or send me some linkage please?

zabaleta - ricahrds - dunne - garrido

They used Onuoha and Bridge in the last game so they will probably start again instead of Zabaleta and Garrido
 
Don't see the point of leaving out the first choice keeper at this stage of the season.
